Jacob and Katelyn

Katelyn couldn’t make it to the personal prom set up for her later that night due to medical complications, so the prom was brought to her as a surprise in a converted room next to hers in the ICU. All photos courtesy Michael Dayah.

Nurses block out the prom room so it remains a surprise
